Increasing population and modern lifestyle have raised energy demands globally. Demand Side Management (DSM) is one important tool used to manage energy demands. It employs an advanced power infrastructure along with bi-directional information flow among utilities and users in order to achieve a balanced load curve and minimize demand-supply mismatch. Traditionally, this involves shifting the e...

This paper presents a study of the use flow baffles inside centrifugal air classifier. An classifier belongs to most widely used classification devices in mills mineral industry, which is why there great interest optimizing process and pressure loss. Using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), profile without with systematically compared. In simulations, turbulence effects are modeled realizable ...

A theoretical and experimental study is performed of rapid, fully developed flows of cohesionless granular materials down inclined chutes with a rough base. Two flow types are studied in detail: (1) immature sliding flow, where a stagnant zone forms on the base of the chute, and (2) fully developed sliding flow, where no such zone is formed. A simple phenomenological theory is developed that pr...

Shock-boundary layer interaction (SBLI) is a kind of problem which is frequently met in supersonic engine inlet flow and external flow. A detail study on mechanism of reduction of shock induced flow separation by MVG is carried out by high order implicit large eddy simulation (LES). To generate the fully developed turbulent flow, a series of turbulent profiles are given by previous DNS simulati...
